Aftermarket Suspension for the Mk7

[Wezza]

Dutch,

I'd say ride quality is really not affected overall. If you say hit a pothole you do feel that its a little firmer, But its by no means transformed the car into a spine jarring ride. It handles better and IMO looks heaps better too.

Anyone else who has dropped there car have any thoughts on ride quality?

[Jazrod]

I think it's a perfect balance of comfort and handling . . . I used to say the same as thing for my XR5T Focus. It feels very similar, just not as much power.

I had it done in Campbelltown (Paul Wakeling VW). Camber is a bit more negative than standard, but it looks good.

Lower spring for MK7 TSI

Hi anyone know front and rear axle weight for MK7 Tsi?
I try to buy Eibach spring for my Tsi. but there are two part no.
One is 'E10-15-021-01-22' (suitable for vehicles with front axle weights up to 985kg and rear axle weights to 1000kg.) The other is 'E10-15-021-03-22' (suitable for vehicles with front axle weights up to 985kg and rear axle weights to 900kg.)

Do you know which one is suitable for MK7 TSI?

[Dutch77]

Part 01 is for multi-link rear axle, part 03 is for beam rear axle; my understanding is all Australian Golfs have the multi-link rear axle? I believe only sub-90kw models in other parts of the world carry the beam rear axle.

Good things come to those who wait. Being personally involved in the development of these arms, we wanted the combo perfect before release, which meant several, expensive revisions to the product. You will very shortly see some video with pro drivers on a familiar Golf R (Black one) in many, many handling tests.

Personally a few extra months is very little in comparison to the 20 months of development we are already into on this product.

There are more development parts on this Golf R than any other in the world that we know of: And one of two sets of pre production (final) arms on the planet. Other set is on display at SEMA.



We will offer an exclusive "Race" version alongside the regular ones with added castor / camber again.

90tsi lowering springs

anybody find any springs to lower the 90tsi? no i dont want coilovers lol .. every google search seems to be for coilovers or for american versions of the golf?

[kry_wolf]

Depends on how much you want to lower it. VWR springs should do the job and don't ruin your stock shocks.

will this fit the 1.4L Turbo? site says its for 1.8LT
